Benefits of technology

[0017]GPR40 modulators are known in the art, for example, the compounds disclosed in WO 2004041266 (EP 1559422), WO 2007033002 and WO 2009157418. The indanyloxyphenylcyclopropanecarboxylic acids of the present invention may provide several advantages, such as enhanced potency, high metabolic and / or chemical stability, high selectivity and tolerability, enhanced solubility, and the possibility to form stable salts.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Problems solved by technology

The amount of insulin produced by the remaining pancreatic islet cells is too low, resulting in elevated blood glucose levels (hyperglycemia).
High blood glucose levels (and also high blood lipid levels) in turn lead to an impairment of beta cell function and to an increase in beta cell apoptosis.
Diabetes is a very disabling disease, because today's common antidiabetic drugs do not control blood sugar levels well enough to completely prevent the occurrence of high and low blood sugar levels.
Out of range blood sugar levels are toxic and cause long-term complications for example retinopathy, renopathy, neuropathy and peripheral vascular disease.
Obesity is associated with an increased risk of follow-up diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia and an increased mortality.
These often occur in the same patients and are major risk factors for development of diabetes type II and cardiovascular disease.

[0458]

[0459](1S,2S)-2-[4-((R)-7-Fluoro-4-hydroxy-indan-1-yloxy)-phenyl]-cyclopropanecarboxylic acid ethyl ester (Intermediate 5, 150 mg, 0.42 mmol), pyridine (dry; 0.133 mL, 1.68 mmol) and phenylboronic acid (308 mg, 2.53 mmol) are suspended in dichloromethane (10 mL), 4 Å molecular sieves and copper(II)acetate (153 mg, 1.52 mmol) are added and the mixture is stirred under oxygen atmosphere at room temperature for 20 h. NH4OH (2 M aqueous solution, 20 mL) is added and the mixture is extracted with dichloromethane. The organic phase is collected, dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum. The crude product is purified by flash chromatography (10-100% ethyl acetate in cyclohexane) to give the title compound (Yield: 40 mg). LC (METHOD 9): tR=2.52 min; Mass spectrum (ES+): m / z=405 [M+H]+.

After 6 hours at 90° C. sodium methoxide (130 mg, 2.25 mmol) is added and the mixture stirred for 24 hours at 90° C. The solvent is removed under vacuum and the residue is purified by flash chromatography (0-10% MeOH in CH2Cl2) to give the title compound (Yield: 13 mg). LC (METHOD 3): tR=4.04 min; Mass spectrum (ES+): m / z=441 [M+H]+.
